So you know these women well? Know their family situations? Know for sure they have no physical or mental health disabilities, have no elderly parents or other dependents they spend hours caring for, have no home-based or part time business on the side, don’t buy knockoffs or second-hand clothes or used cars to save money? You must be pretty good friends to know their financial situations so intimately, but you’re so condescending and dismissive. Do you treat all your friends that way?[/quote]

NP, but everyone has a mental health disorder or disability in 2024. Plenty of them work. Get over yourself.[/quote]
Your opinion of whether someone *should* work has no bearing on whether their health actually *allows* them to work. [/quote]

DP. The thing is your mind set that there is this lot of money and some deserve to receive it via FA and others do not is what is mind boggling. Private school is a luxury and should be just that - a luxury. Noone is entitled to it. I support the idea of FA but some of these views are really off putting to me and make me question whether I actually want to pay money to support it anymore. [/quote]

I'm not sure what you are saying. OP is upset the "wrong" people are getting FA. If it's a luxury, then presumably no people should get FA, is that right?

Personally I don't think it's a luxury, I think the school is a business offering a service for a fee. Sometimes you can get a discount. [/quote]
